ACPI and AMD processors on VIA chipsets

[Mike S]

Any game I try and play crashes to the desktop after about
10 minutes of play. I have narrowed the problem down to
the ACPI features in Windows 2000 Pro, but I do not know
how to fix them. Here are my specs:

AMD Athlon 1.4GHz
256MB PC2100
Win 2K Pro
eVGA GForce 4 MX440
Soundblaster Live 5.1

All drivers and BIOS are up to date. All service pack and
hotfixes applied to Win 2K.

Thanks!

I'm having that exact same problem. I havn't found a
solution but if you find something, if you could let me
know that would be awesome. I'll let you know if i find
anything. Thanks.

Makes me think its a heat issue if you can play for 10 minutes. Might want
to rule that out first.
